Some 420 species of higher fungi were collected from the Mt. Paekdu, Songwha river and their adjacent areas from 28th July 12th of August, 1991 and identified to 2 subdivisions, 4 classes, 2 subclasses, 12 orders, 51 families, 141 genera and 336 species. The dominant species were Clitocybe gibba, C. clavipes, Cystoderma amianthnum, Hygrocybe flavescens, H. miniata, Russula cyanoxantha, R. emetica, Lactarius lignyotus, L. torminosus and Phellinus igniarus.

Mushrooms have a long history of use in traditional medicine, and hundreds of novel constituents in mushrooms with miraculous biological properties have been identified recently. Although diverse effects for medicinal use of mushrooms such as anticancer activity are proven, their reversal activities of drug resistance in cancer cells was rarely reported so far. In the search for novel medicinal use of mushrooms, we tested the multidrug resistance (MDR) reversal activities of diverse mushrooms collected from Korea. Among, the mushroom extracts tested, Cantharellus cibarius (M02) and Russula emetica (M12) revealed MDR reversal activities of paclitaxel in the P-glycoprotein (Pgp)-positive HCT15 and MES-SA/dX5 cancer cells, but not in the Pgp-negative A549 and MES-SA cancer cells. In addition, these mushrooms also enhanced the cytotoxicity of doxorubicin, another well-kwown Pgp-associated anticancer drug against MES-SA/DX5 cells, but not against MES-SA cells. Meanwhile, the cytotoxicity of cisplatin, a well-known Pgp-non-associated anticancer drug, was not affected by the mushrooms all the cells tested. From these results, we suspected that some ingredients of M02 and M12 have Pgp-associated MDR reversal activities.

The fungal flora of Mt. Gyeryong National Park was investigated for the foundation of the nature studying garden and the nature conservation of the area during the period of July to October 1981. The fungi growing wildly in the area were collected and classified into 19 families, 53 genera, 93 species of Basidiomycetes and 5 families, 7 genera, 8 species of Ascomycetes. Species of Amanita, Boletus, Suillus, Russula, Lactarius, Laccaria and Marasmius were frequently observed during the hot and humid period. Well-developed communities of Lactarius piperatus, Russula emetica and Ramaria spp. were also found in Mt. Gyeryong. Unrecorded species of fungi in Mt. Gyeryong studied were not included in this report.

Many fungi were collected at Mt. Daedun Provincial Park between the periods from March 2001 to October 2002 and they were identified. According to the results, the fungi diversity included 2 division, 3 subdivisions, 5 classes, 4 subclasses, 12 orders, 35 families, 75 genera and 153 species. Among them Ileodictyon is unrecorded genus and Ileodictyon gracile, Mycena flosum-nivium and Tricholoma lascivum are newly to Korea. Dominant family are Tricholomataceae, Russulaceae and Polyporaceae;genus Amanita and species Collybia confluens and Russula emetica In useful fungi and ecological resources, edible fungi included 51 species; culture fungi 10; poisonous fungi 18: medicinal fungi 17: anticancer fungi 22: ectomycorrhizal fungi 26 and wood rotting fungi 51, In geographical distributions of Chonbuk areas, same species are 50 spcies of Jeongup ; 56 of Mt.Manduck : 84 of Mt.Jiri : 28 of Pyonsan national park : 59 of Cheonju arboretum and 51 of Mt,Sunun.

More than 300 specimens of higher fungi were collected from both Mt. Daeduck and Mt. Daesung areas in Kangwon Province during the period from 13 to 19 August, 1990. These fungi were identified and classified into 4 orders, 15 families, 35 genera, 52 species and 1 variety. Dominant species were considered to be Collybia confluens in Tricholomataceae, and Russula emetica in Russulaceae of Agaricales, and Phlogiotis hevelloides in Auriculariales throughout our survey areas. Phlogiotis hevelloides (Fr.) Martin. (장미주걱목이) and Pseudohydnum gelatinosum (Scop. ex Fr.) P. Karst. (혓바늘목이) were newly described in Korea.

Syzygites megalocarpus occurred on the fruit bodies of Tricholoma matsutake, Leccinum rugosiceps, Pulveroboletus ravenelii, Russula emetica, and Amanita pseudoporphyria in the field. We could select Malt Extract Agar, Mueller Hinton Medium and Potato Dextrose Agar as optimal media among eight media. Syzygites megalocarpus showed an optimal temperature around $23^{\circ}C$ with optimal pH 6.0. Growth of S. megalocarpus on PDA was inhibited by 36.5% at 5% NaCl compared with without NaCl and did not grow at more than 8% NaCl in 2 days after inoculation. However, it grew 1.1 cm in 10% NaCl in 5 days after inoculation. Growth of Tricholoma matsutake on PDA was inhibited by increasing contration of NaCl and did not nearly grow at 2.5% NaCl in 60 days after inoculation. Because S. megalocarpus grew at high concentration of NaCl, we concluded that NaCl should not use for controlling S. megalocarpus on the fruit body of T. matsutake.
